Last Friday Oulton Park opened its gates to the 2010 season with a test session. Track conditions were made challenging by the combination of recent weather conditions and fallen leaves.

However, this challenge was something the drivers were relishing. Hughes’ Managing Director Tony Hughes was utilising the day to get his eye back in and try and to get more time in the seat. He commented:

‘As this is the first test day at Oulton Park for the 2010 season, it is a perfect opportunity to get back into the groove. The circuit is brilliant and the conditions are very slippery and challenging which helps to get your eye in again. I have many plans for this season. I am hoping to do 7 out of the 10 rounds of the Ginetta G50 Championship but also going to make appearances at the Spa 6 hour, Classic Le Mans and the Britcar 24hr races.’
